Comparing your options
Leaving guests to bring their own is easy but unpredictable. A bar gives every guest a drink in hand. When you compare quotes, check what each one includes: service time, staff, plates and napkins, travel and VAT. Contact us for a quote and we’ll set out what’s included.
Why book with us
- A quote that sets out what’s included
- Allergen information for everything we serve
- Food and drinks from one caterer, if you want both
- We cover Binscombe and the whole of Surrey
Can I do a taco night myself?
Doing it yourself? Start with the quantities: see how many tacos per person. Keep warmed tortillas covered, and label anything containing allergens.
For a small group, a taco night at home can work well. For larger numbers, mixed diets or a wedding, a caterer takes the pressure off, and handles allergen information for you.
What affects the price in Binscombe
We’ll give you a clear quote. The main things that affect it are:
